"Mr. Xu, don't send it anymore. After sending Rao Bing to the door, Rao Bing replied with a smile.

Xu Zhidao: "Director Rao walks slowly. ”

Back indoors, looked at the time, it was almost ten o'clock, and he was a little hungry, although there was no shortage of food in the State Guesthouse, Xu Zhi still decided to go around the capital to experience the food of the capital.

The accommodation provided by the State Guesthouse is similar to the villas of later generations, and Xu Zhi walked into the side hall at the back and saw his parents and sister watching TV together.

Xu Zhi asked, "What show are you watching?"

Xu Yaxin said: "It's nothing to see, it's all some news, and it sounds so awkward, just now we saw you talking about things outside, and you didn't dare to go out." ”

Xu Zhi said: "I've finished talking, I decided to go out for a walk and find a place to have lunch, do you want to go together?"

Wang Hua looked at the weather outside and asked, "It's snowing outside!"

Xu Zhi smiled: "It's okay, there will be a special car to take us here." ”

"Mom, you don't have to worry about this kind of little thing. Xu Yaxin turned her head again and asked Xu Zhi, "Then where will we go to eat?"

Xu Zhi thought for a while and said, "Why don't we go and eat Quanjude roast duck, this is very famous in the capital!"

"Quanjude, I have also heard of the name of this shop in Xiangjiang. Father Xu Hongbang suddenly said: "Since you want to go out, hurry up and change your clothes." ”

Xu Hongbang belongs to the efficiency type, and when others are still discussing where to play and where to eat, he listens and dresses up.

There is heating in the hotel, and now when you go out, you naturally have to change into thick clothes, and after the four of them are ready, Xu Zhi called the waiter outside and informed him that he had arranged a car and a driver.

The car is still an Audi, and the people in the Xiangjiang delegation are all people who have seen the world, and it is estimated that they also know that the quality of the local "Shanghai brand" sedan is not good, so they specially transferred some imported cars.

"Master, go to Quanjude Roast Duck Shop. After everyone got into the car, Xu Zhi greeted the master and said.

The driver, who was about 30 years old, said, "Okay, sit down." ”

At this moment, it is not working time, it is snowing outside, there is no one on the road at all, although the car is not fast because of the snow, but after all, there is no traffic jam, and the car will soon reach its destination.

In this era, there are very few people who can drive, and those who can drive domestic imported cars are even rarer, from Xu Zhi and others to the middle of the car to the destination, the master who drove did not say a word at all, obviously, the professional quality is particularly high, and it also made Xu Zhi think of the legendary five-character profession!

"If you don't go to the Great Wall, you are not a hero, and it is a pity not to eat roast duck!"

Quanjude is a time-honored brand in China, founded in 1864, after hundreds of years of development, witnessed the rise and fall of the Chinese nation, in this era Quanjude is not a chain store of the rotten street in later generations, but just a simple state-owned hotel, the whole signboard is the ordinary red font, the whole wall is pink and white, far less than the fancy in the later generations, but it is said that the delicacy is first-class, and people forget to return.

In this era, it is not easy to eat in a state-owned hotel, especially Quanjude, but Xu Zhi and others sat in an Audi car, which attracted the attention of many people from the moment they drove to the door.

"Sir, this is our menu. In the box, the waitress handed the menu to Xu Zhi, she had a keen eye, and she could see at a glance that the four people in front of her were decided by this young man.

In the future, if you want to eat a roast duck in Quanjude, even if it is the most ordinary chain store, even if there are only a few people, it is estimated that you will not even see the duck skin if you don't prepare a few hundred yuan, but just roast duck, basically two or three hundred yuan, and now it is 81 years, when the recipe is placed in front of Xu Zhi, this price makes him amazed.

"A roast duck is 8 yuan, half a duck is 5 yuan, and the duck bone soup with green vegetables is 5 cents, and the sauce is 0.2 yuan. ”

"Mushu meat is 9 cents 5, and oily meat is 1.6 yuan. ”

"Meat slices and tofu are 0.55 yuan, and fried prawns are 4.8 yuan. ”

"Spicy chicken is 2.6 yuan, duck liver is 0.6 yuan. ”

"Sweet and sour fish fillet is 1.5 yuan, and fried squid is 2.8 yuan. ”

"Rice is 0.03 yuan a tael. ”

......

......

The most expensive dish is roast duck, which costs 8 yuan, and Moutai is also 8 yuan.

But if you think that this price is very cheap, then you are wrong, in 81 years, most of the people in the capital had a salary of less than 50 yuan, and the salary of four people eating here for half a month was gone, and in later generations, the average salary in Beijing in 2019 was 6909 yuan, and it was generally 1000 yuan for three or four people to eat a meal, so it seems that it was obviously more expensive in the 80s.

Not to mention that in this day and age, even if you have money, you can't come here.

Xu Zhi discussed with his family and ordered 6 dishes, namely roast duck, sliced pork tofu, fried shrimp, braised sea cucumber, sliced mushroom bamboo shoots, and crucian carp tofu soup. I ordered a bottle of Moutai for my father, which was 26 yuan in total.

One meal eats up half a month's salary of an ordinary person, and in the mainland, it is not something that ordinary people can afford.

Soon, the waiter came up with the wine, Dad's Moutai is not a glass bottle, but a bottle similar to a wine jug, looking at the volume, it is estimated that it is only 200 ml.

The roast duck came up quickly, with this pickle and dough, Xu Zhi skillfully picked up the dough, put the duck meat with dipping sauce, and added a little cucumber shreds, radish strips, green onion strips and garlic paste, wrapped it and put it directly into his mouth.

The entrance felt that the duck meat was tender, the sauce was thick but not greasy, and seeing that his family also ate it, Xu Zhi smiled and asked, "How is it, it's delicious!"

Xu Hongbang nodded and said, "It's not bad, it's just a little heavy." ”

"I think it's okay!" Xu Yaxin said.

"It can't be said that the taste is heavy, it may be that you have been in Xiangjiang for a long time and are used to being light. Xu Zhi explained: "Xiao Xin went to the United States, where there are all kinds of flavors, and you can get used to the tastes of the capital." ”

"Yes, you have a point. Xu Hongbang smiled, took a sip of wine, and said, "This wine is good, we can buy some and bring it back to Xiangjiang." ”

"No, in Xiangjiang, there is a company that specializes in Moutai from the mainland, and you can buy it there. Xu Zhi explained with a smile.

"Oh, okay, I'll check it out next time. Xu Hongbang nodded and said.

In this era in the mainland, every dish in the restaurant is very large, which is completely different from Xiangjiang, and the stomach of the four people is almost bursting, and there is still a small half of it that has not been eaten.

"Pack these up. Wang Hua greeted the waiter and said, not wasting is a habit, even if you have money, you will not change.

Several people walked to the door and were about to return to the car, when suddenly, a person came from behind him and said softly to Xu Zhi: "Sir, do you want to exchange foreign exchange coupons?"
